Member asking me to do FAKE vouch. - Vinzuhara - Jan 14, 2014
A while ago, a member on HF PM'd me asking me to send him images of my paypal where I was receiving money. He wanted me to do this so he could get a "fake" vouch. What he offered me was a copy of the ebook he was selling in return.
What I wanted to know is, is this against the rules of the Marketplace? Sorry if it is the "Help" section, as I could not find anything about fake vouches. And to any member who wants to know who was the one asking me for fake vouches, I apologize as the PM's he sent me were long ago deleted.
The reason I am making this now, is becuase I only recently remembered this incident. Also, I saw a thread being posted about an incident that happened that is similar to mine. If the Staff could go through my delted PM's, theyd fine it.

If I'm understanding this correctly, faking a vouch is forbidden.
I'd report the player.

Fake vouches are against the rules.
Report the member immediately.

The player? Do you mean the user?
OT: Report the user to a staff member with on site proof.

I guess you can put up a scam report for fraudulent vouching.
I don't think the rules cover anything about this though. I will go read them again real quick.
Edit:
Only rule that sorta relates:
"Ebook Bazaar
1. No begging for review or vouch copies."

Report the member asap.
I am pretty sure that is against the rules.

There is no official set rule on this particular issue yet.
